The rear diffuser was from ebay - just a generic gloss black version. Sorry I've lost the link.

This is my first Alpine White car and I am loving it. I did toy with the idea of a black car but washing it would have been a pain, and you also don't get the nice contrast of the black bodywork. Mineral white is nice but my wife and I both preferred the AW - as you say it really pops!

Nice build! You'll love the car. Did you actually get the M Performance exhaust, as opposed to the M Sport? If so, that should sound pretty awesome!

With summer arriving, we decided to get back into biking and so picked up a few ebikes. Of course the X5 had to be kitted out to haul the load!

Ended up going with a Westfalia removable towbar (including their wiring harness) and a Thule Velospace XT3. Both are a great piece of kit and I highly recommend.

Hi there nice X5.

I'm looking at getting wheel spacers on my new car have you had any issues with handling, ride quality, wheels rubbing against fender. Can you tell me which brand you bought?

Thanks in advance

Hey there I got the H&R spacers. No issues whatsoever, just a more pleasing look!

It's winter here in Australia so took the X5 to the local ski fields. I must say, the Alpine White certainly looked the part with a bit of extra help alpine help!

15/20mm Front and Rear

If you don't plan to lower your car, you might want to go slightly less.

Cheers thanks it's been a great setup.

Two recent additions to the car. Added a MatchUP 8 DSP amp to boost the weak standard HiFi system. Really gives it a decent lift and being able to tweak individual speakers is very handy. Definitely recommend.

Secondly added the Thule Motion XT roof box in XL size. Whilst fairly expensive it's a great unit with the improved locking system. I'm glad I didn't go for the XXL size because I can only just manage mounting the XL on my own!

Still looking sharp!
